Regency Architecture
Regency Architecture refers to a style of building that emerged in Britain during the early 19th century, particularly between 1811 and 1820, when King George IV ruled as Prince Regent. This architectural style is characterized by its elegant proportions, decorative details, and the use of classical elements, often inspired by Ancient Greece and Rome.
Common features of Regency Architecture include large windows, stucco facades, and intricate ironwork. Notable examples can be found in cities like Bath and Brighton, where grand terraces and public buildings showcase the style's emphasis on symmetry and harmony, reflecting the social aspirations of the time.
